Jaguar-Land Rover has selected Sogefi to supply the diesel fuel filter for its Ingenium 2.0l Diesel engine range.
This filter module is made of plastic for the housing and the bracket, and is mounted into the engine bay.
Its filter element, thanks to Diesel3Tech technology, combines excellent water separation, top of the market efficiency and large dust holding capacity.
This fuel filter also offers a water in fuel sensor, a water drain screw and an electrostatic discharge pin.
Diesel3Tech separates water droplets from fuel and stores water in a dedicated water tank.
Once maximum water level is reached, the water in fuel sensor lights up a warning light on the dashboard.
This way, separated water can be removed from the water tank through the drain screw.
Long-life
Thanks to exclusive chevron pleating, this filter element offers outstanding dust holding capacity in a reduced footprint.
Moreover, Sogefi has developed its own dimensioning software, based on thousands of filter elements returned from the field from all over the world, over more than ten years.
This tool enables Sogefi to right size filter elements regarding real life conditions, in order to avoid any premature clogging between service intervals, even in the worst conditions.
When fuel flows around the filter element, it can sometimes generate electrostatic charging of some filter elements.
This Sogefi filter provides electrostatic ground pin to avoid this, guarantying vehicle and passengers’ safety.
This filter module provides a welded shell around the filter element which provides a protection of the fuel line for cleanliness during servicing.
This filter has been designed to withstand extreme Diesel conditions: inside a plastic housing, its filter media is designed to offer very high efficiency for particles down to four microns, ensuring a long life of the high pressure pump and the injectors, while Diesel3Tech offers class leading water separation to better protect the fuel injection system against corrosion.
Mauro Prodi, Sogefi aftermarket general manager, said: “This product gathers some of the very core specific know-how of Sogefi like module conception, chevron pleating and Diesel3Tech, allowing the IAM trade to distribute a product of high technological content and interesting unit value”.
